Full Feature Animated Naruto Movies
It was announced in 2003 that the very popular Naruto anime series would be making the large transition from TV set to full theatrical release in a movie to be released August 21st, 2004. After much anticipation the movie opened up to sold out crowds, quickly climbing to the top of the Japanese box office. With an estimated 13,000,000 people seeing the movie in theaters, it would soon be announced that a second Naruto movie would be released the following Summer on August 6th, 2005. The success continued and on its premiere day, it was shown that Naruto the Movie 3, the very last movie from part 1 of the Naruto anime series that will be made, would be released in theaters the next Summer on August 5th, 2006. It can now safely be assumed that a Naruto movie will be released in Summer of 2007 featuring the updated characters from part 2 of the Naruto series.
